Sorry but if they "can't work" how are they getting 12k a year tax credit?
They have 6 children - its linked to that...also, they may have worked before (for all we know).

Yeah but you only get tax credit if you're working. That's why it's called "working familes tax credit".They have 6 children - its linked to that...also, they may have worked before (for all we know).

Maybe if the state just stopped paying out people would be forced to make a decision about having kids in the first place? (I'm not referring to incapacity benefit here).

I agree that emailing specific cases is wrong. I was referring to the amounts, which is something I could have worked out with an online benefit calculator in 10 minutes...(the entitlement for 2 adults and 6 children)

The data and case is confidential. The op's friend is an asshat and should be reported.
If he sent the email from work he'll be in trouble anyway.
Also £25,000 a year on housing benefit - thats more than the average UK salary!
Yes, but they do not get that money put in their hands, it goes straight to the council in rent and tax, the rest more than likely goes to the power companies for light and heat
I remember seeing an article discussing the fact that incapacity is currently black and white...
We can only hope.
Are you happy for your ENTIRE tax contribution (if you pay any), plus that of another 14 average earners paying for a house, food, water, electricity and entertainment for a family who can't be bothered to work?.
And I don't see the problem with what my friend did - no personal data changed hands, and the figures can be calculated with about 5 minutes research using google. Get off your high horses please.
